The AC_SUBST'd variable '$(NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT)' is only used in
makefile expressions expanding the list of manual pages that are not
built by default (but might need to be when a distribution tarball
is created). Such expressions exploited a feature of make variable
expansion -- namely, $(VAR:%=dir/%.x) -- that, while seemingly quite
portable in practice, is not POSIX-conforming, and could break on
lesser vendor make implementations. So kill two birds with one stone,
by getting rid of the $(NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT) intermediate variable
and improving makefile portability in the process.
While at it, we also clean up some other minor naming inconsistency
and useless indirection.
* configure.ac (NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT): Don't define or AC_SUBST
anymore; instead ...
(EXTRA_MANS): ... define and AC_SUBST these.
* man/local.mk (extra_man_1): Rename ...
(EXTRA_MANS): ... like this, explicitly making clear it's AC_SUBST'd.
(extra_man_x): It's used only once, no need to define it; just inline
its only expansion where needed.
(EXTRA_DIST): Adjust.
(ALL_MANS): New, union of $(EXTRA_MANS) and $(dist_man1_MANS).
* cfg.mk (check-x-vs-1, sc_option_desc_uppercase): Rely on $(ALL_MANS)
rather than on $(NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT) and $(dist_man1_MANS).
|
|
* src/local.mk (dist-hook): Don't use this to ensure all the
programs, even the ones disabled by default or by the user, are
built (doing so is required to ensure the distributed manpages
are properly built). This would build those programs too late
anyway, causing errors like:
$ make dist
make dist-xz am__post_remove_distdir='@:'
make[1]: Entering directory `~/src/coreutils'
GEN man/arch.1
help2man: can't get '--help' info from man/arch.td/arch
make[1]: *** [man/arch.1] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `~/src/coreutils'
make: *** [dist] Error 2
Instead, ...
* man/local.mk (extra_man_x, extra_man_1): define these ...
($(extra_man_1)): ... and make this depend on $(all_programs).
(EXTRA_DIST): Adjust.
Adjust some comments as well.
|
|
This is more natural, now that the top-level Makefile has access to
all the variables and rules once defined only in 'man/Makefile.am'
* man/local.mk (all_programs, sc_option_desc_uppercase,
sc_man_file_correlation check-x-vs-1, check-programs-vs-x): Move
from here ...
* cfg.mk: ... to here. Adjust some comments in the process.
|
|
* Makefile.am: Include 'man/local.mk'.
(SUBDIRS): Remove 'man'.
* configure.ac ($MAN): Adjust so that each of its entries has a leading
'man/' component.
(AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove 'man/Makefile'.
* man/Makefile.am: Rename ...
* man/local.mk: ... like this. With further adjustments: each 'foo.1'
target renamed like 'man/foo.1', each '../src/foo.c' dependency as
'src/foo.c', and each '$(srcdir)' usage as '$(srcdir)/man'. Also ...
(mandep): Adjust, removing the leading '../' component.
Several whitespace adjustments while at it.
(ASSORT): Remove, it's already defined in the top-level Makefile.am.
* cfg.mk (sc_option_desc_uppercase, sc_man_file_correlation): Remove
the associated recipes, they are now directly available from the
included 'man/local.mk'. Actually, the other changes in this commit
have made these recipes instable and not completely correct, but that
will be fixed in later changes.
|
|
This change is merely required to make future changes easier.
In particular, since we are going to merge the contents of
'man/Makefile.am' into the top-level Makefile, we need to avoid
conflicts with the rules and variables in 'dist-check.mk', and
to prepare for changes in the value of the '$*' variable as used
in the recipe of the '.x -> .1' suffix rule.
* man/Makefile.am (t, mapped_name): Delete, inlining their use ...
(.1.x): ... in the recipe of this suffix rule. Other adjustments
to prepare to changes in the value of the '$*' automatic variable.
While at it, made more resilient about unlikely but possible failure.
Adjust and reorder few comments.
|
|
This is mostly a preparatory change in view of future ones.
* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Use '$(abs_top_builddir)/src' to access
the 'src' directory.
|
|
* man/Makefile.am: In all the 'foo.1' targets, no need to depend
explicitly on '$(srcdir)/foo.x': the '.x.1' suffix rule takes care
of that automatically.
|
|
* man/Makefile.am: Here.
|
|
This is mostly a preparatory refactoring in view of future changes.
* man/Makefile.am (common_dep): Rename ...
(mandep): ... like this.
All usages adjusted.
|
|
* man/Makefile.am (sc_option_desc_uppercase): Here.
|
|
* man/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Describe portability issues of the
idiom we now use. Reformat the definition a little while at it.
|
|
* man/Makefile.am (SUFFIXES): Remove definition: Automake is smart
enough to extract the list of suffixes from the '.x.1' suffix rule
automatically.
|

This program is compatible with other realpath(1)
implementations, and also incorporates relpath like support,
through the --relative options. The relpath support
was suggested by Peng Yu, who also provided an initial
implemenation of that functionality.

At the moment, things like man/arch.1 are not included in the tarball.
This makes perl a requirement if you want to build/install the arch
helper.
* man/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add $(NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT:%=%.1).

man-pages(7) explicitly says about SEE ALSO sections: "Do not terminate
this with a period." This is also in line with all the other man pages
in coreutils.

These checks were not being run as distcheck-hook targets
are only supported in the top-level Makefile. Instead
these tests are now run during a syntax-check.
* cfg.mk (sc_man_file_correlation): A new syntax check to
call the 2 existing tests to check the correlation between
the programs and man/*.[1x].
* man/Makefile.am (sc_man_file_correlation): Call the 2 existing
man page correlation tests.
(check-x-vs-1): Remove the "GEN" annotation as it's a bit verbose.
(check-programs-vs-x): Likewise.
* src/Makefile.am (all_programs.list): Exclude libstdbuf.so
from the list of programs. This issue was not noticed as
the checks were not actually being run.

* src/base64.c (usage): Don't capitalize the first character
in an --option description.
* src/stdbuf.c (usage): Likewise.
* src/truncate.c (usage): Likewise.
* cfg.mk (sc_option_desc_uppercase): A new syntax check to
stop this happening in future.

man pages are generated, then search for erroneous uppercase chars.
* src/Makefile.am (all_programs): Ensure all
commands are built so that all man pages can be generated.

* src/system.h: Rename emit_bug_reporting_address() to
emit_ancillary_info() and update it to not print the translation
project address in en_* locales, and _do_ print it in the 'C'
(and other) locales so that it's included in the default man page.
Also mention how to invoke the texinfo documentation for each command.
Also move the "hard-locale.h" include to the 8 files that now use it.
* man/help2man: Strip the newly added texinfo reference from the
--help output as a more verbose version is already added by help2man.
Suggestion from C de-Avillez

* man/Makefile.am (check-x-vs-1): Using a fixed-name temporary file
is better than one ending in -$$, because many -$$-suffixed files
may accumulate over time.

This should help people notice that they are generated.
Note: each file already has a comment to that effect from help2man.

Also, don't redirect directly to the target, $@.
|
|
* man/Makefile.am (.x.1, check-x-vs-1, check-programs-vs-x):
Mark with $(AM_V_GEN), so that automake-1.11 prints
"GEN $@" by default (stick with "GEN" in spite of the latter two
rules not officially generating anything -- they're just tests).
